DDM helps you get more from Solid Edge
DDM’s extensive integration with Solid Edge provides top-tier PLM capabilities for the cost of basic entry level PDM.
As an approved application development partner of Siemens, DDM provides enterprise CAD & BOM data management capabilities directly from Solid Edge.
Intelligent Load / Save Window
Engineers benefit from much greater visibility and control when loading and saving Solid Edge parts, assembles and drawings in DDM, with parameter refresh flags, force save, batch processing and load / save timers.
Configurable Part Numbering
Take control of part numbers with DDM’s built in part number generator. Supporting manual, sequential and intelligent part numbering, engineers can quickly and accurately assign correct part numbers to their work.
Drawing and Title Block Automation
When saving Solid Edge drawings, DDM can be configured to automatically updates the title block with the correct revision, part number, lifecycle state and author. Automatic drawing PDF’s can be configured too.
Revision Control and Release States
Lifecycle management is central to DDM’s core functionality, using Issue numbers/letters for revision control and lifecycle states such as Work in Progress and Released to secure design data.
“Where Used” Visibility
Built into the primary interface of DDM, engineers can quickly and easily expand or contract product trees for complete parent / child relationship information.
CAD Parameter Mapping
With our CAD Parameter mapping tool, DDM can be configured to map attributes stored in Solid Edge directly to DDM, so engineers and non-CAD users have easy visibility of data such as mass, length and material.
Enterprise CAD & BOM Data Management
As an approved application development partner of Siemens, DDM provides enterprise CAD & BOM data management capabilities directly from Solid Edge.
